Absolutely stunning!

Absolutely stunning views! I was a little sketched out going up as it was my first time driving up a mountain like that, but it really wasn’t bad. Watching the sunset was spectacular, then being able to star gaze.

Dispersed Camping

Fantastic views. The wind is killer. Very little Verizon and AT&T signal. Gorgeous sunsets.

Whitetop Mountain

Nice spot to pitch a tent or for car camping. Whitetop mountain has some of the best views in VA and is very popular for watching sunsets.
